URGENT! Please read the following and act quickly



Ronald Reagan On ObamaCare….


Almost 50 years ago, Ronald Reagan spoke about the evils of government-run health care under the banner of a campaign called Operation Coffee Cup.

Reagan said; "One of the traditional methods of imposing statism or socialism on a people has been by way of medicine."

Reagan described the movement to impose statism through health care as a "threat" that was "imminent."

Here's what Reagan said:

"The doctor begins to lose freedom.... First you decide that the doctor can have so many patients. They are equally divided among the various doctors by the government. But then doctors aren’t equally divided geographically. So a doctor decides he wants to practice in one town and the government has to say to him, you can't live in that town. They already have enough doctors. You have to go someplace else. And from here it's only a short step to dictating where he will go."

Reagan continued:

"All of us can see what happens once you establish the precedent that the government can determine a man's working place and his working methods, determine his employment. From here it's a short step to all the rest of socialism, to determining his pay. And pretty soon your son won't decide when he's in school, where he will go or what he will do for a living. He will wait for the government to tell him where he will go to work and what he will do."

Reagan closed by telling us the price of not taking action to stop this threat:

"And if you don't do this and if I don't do it, one of these days you and I are going to spend our sunset years telling our children, and our children's children, what it once was like in America when men were free."

Reagan had a talent for getting to the heart of the matter and his words are as true today as they were back then.

This so-called move to radically change our health care system by putting the federal government in charge has nothing to do with making health care more accessible, more available and more affordable.

It's more about the desire of politicians in Washington to impose greater centralized government control.

We can’t thank you enough for all you have done to defeat ObamaCare thus far. But all Americans must continue to make their voices heard against this government takeover of health care. We must continue to fight, or the result just may be telling our children and grandchildren "what it once was like in America when men were free."

Remember, the vote on the motion to proceed could take place mere hours from now. The time to act is now.



Send your urgent and personalized Faxes to each and every Republican Member of the United States Senate as well as Senators Blanche Lincoln, Joseph Lieberman, Ben Nelson and Mary Landrieu (key Democrat Senators who are sitting on the fence). Or alternately, you can send your urgent and personalized Blast Faxes to all 100 Members of the United States Senate... that's 100 Faxes.

Let them know that the American people will not be fooled or deceived. Let them know that you understand that a vote on the motion to proceed is a vote for ObamaCare… period.

Thank you for the post. It is really getting scary out there. I am so thankful after we do what we can, God is still on the throne!!!!!!!!! I just keep asking Jesus to tear the whole thing down. It is amazing to me that the Lord hears a momma in Kansas praying!!!!!

Thank you so much Kelle for informing all of us!!!!!!!
Blessings, Linda

Faith,
Weird and very disheartening to say the very least. I know we're told of what is coming( Bible), but until it begins to actually happen it's hard to grasp.
The ONLY thing that keeps us grounded is God's word and His promise. Thanks for stopping in and chatting.

Pain Chaud,
Thanks for your comment and welcome. I, myself, know very little about your healthcare.It isn't that I don't think we need healthcare revision, it's just how they( government) are proposing it come into being. To say that they will fine( up to $15,000 a year or 5 yrs in prison) anyone who doesn't subscribe to this healthcare is absurd! How will this help those who can't afford the insurance now?
I do think there needs to be some sort of regulation on insurance companies, so they can't turn people down due to a pre-existing condition( which our Dd has and we can't attain insurance for, at a reasonal price)or cut you off if a condition developes. Do I think the government can run this, most likely not, look at the programs they are already running( into the ground)
I'm glad you are happy with your healthcare, but I don't want the government to cram anything down my throat or threaten me with a fine or jail. We do in fact have major medical insurance through my Dh's company, that is a blessing. Maybe someday we'll get healthcare mess regulated into something fair and affordable for all, at least that is our prayer.

John@ Pioneer Living.net,
AMEN! This is why for several years we've deleved into alternative, natural treatment methods. My Dh is an EMT, not only to serve our community as a volunteer, but to learn treatment methods for our family. What bothers me is the fact that they WILL come after alternative treatment methods. The drug companies have the power and have already begun their attack on suppliments and organic/natural alternatives. Good thing we can wildcraft many of our herbs, they'll be hidden in plain sight, so to speak*wink*
Thanks for chatting, come back again we need your advice and opinions.

Joni,
I love looking back at quotes from the past, most are full of such wisdom, to bad we couldn't have taken heed then*sigh*
We too have been calling, emailing and I even had my Dh send faxes yesterday to our Senators and House Rep. It's frustrating that they just aren't listening to, "We the People" these days. The one promise we have is that God is in control and he WILL deal with them.

Linda,
You and me both are asking for it to all come crashing down about them. It is hard to wrap one's mind around the fact that our prayers are heard, no matter who we are, where we live or our income level, PTL!
You are entirely welcome, I just post what the Lord lays on my heart. Keep praying, it's prayer warriors who are NEEDED now!

Thank you all for your time in commenting, now I ask you pray for our country, elected officals and the issues at hand.

It's just sick and depressing what's happening. This is a fine mess they are getting us into if this passes.

Two countries seperated by a common language, I haven't a clue what your problem is, unless libertarianism features in your agenda. As a light aside the word verification is subna.

Adrian,
May I ask what you ment by this,"As a light aside the word verification is subna."
I did not write this, it was a email notice from a watch group and thought it was information worth sharing.
I'm not a Libertarian, more of a Constitutionalist/ Conservative.
Thanks for joining in,and being a follower of our blog.

We have joined in the ranks of calling our state officials, too.

The state of our country (USA) brings me pretty low in spirit since the last election. Everyday is hard to hear what the government is 'doing now'.

We are very similar in our thoughts of seeking alternatives for health.

Thanks for sharing this!
Blessings!
Kris
